Neutral lock button. Prevents accidental shift and throttle engagement. The neutral lock button must be pushed in to move the
control handle out of neutral.
Throttle‑only button. Allows engine throttle advancement without shifting the engine. This is done by disengaging the shift
mechanism from the control handle. The throttle‑only button can be pressed only when the remote control handle is in the
neutral position, and should only be used to assist in starting the engine.
Lanyard stop switch. Turns the ignition off whenever the operator (when attached to the lanyard) moves far enough away
from the operator's position to activate the switch. Refer to Lanyard Stop Switch for information on the use of this switch.
Control handle. Operation of the shift and throttle is controlled by the movement of the control handle. Push the control handle
forward from neutral with a quick, firm motion to the first detent for forward gear. Continue pushing forward to increase speed.
Pull the control handle back from neutral with a quick, firm motion to the first detent for reverse gear and continue pushing back
to increase speed.
Control handle tension adjustment screw (not visible). This screw is used to adjust the effort required to move the remote
control handle. Refer to the instructions provided with the remote control for complete adjustment instructions.
